Revlon Lip Butters

I don’t think I’ve ever seen that much raving since Urban Decay came out with their Naked palette… Every Youtuber seemed to have these lip butters and at least half of them fel the need to buy all the colours. :D We don’t have Revlon here, but I went to London recently and grabbed three from Superdrug. Just for fun, just to check them out. I kept two for myself and gave one (“Strawberry Shortcake”) to my sister. I’m actually really happy with them and at least one of the colours I have is worth the hype.

I LOVE the packaging – I think it’s pretty darn beautiful and looks more expensive than it really is. The texture of these balms is SO soft and the pigment quite impressive – at least “Lollipop” is very nicely pigmented and really does work as a lipstick. “Cupcake” is not as pigmented, but gives this beautiful light pink/nude look to your lips. But you have to be careful – it looks terrible if your lips are chapped. You should have perfect soft lips before applying this. These lip butters should have the texture of a lip balm, colour of a lipstick and shine of a lip gloss and I think it’s quite true. The only downside I have with this product is the fact that it runs out so fast. It’s so soft and balmy and if you were an active user it would probably only last you about 3-4 weeks.

If you don’t own any of these, do check them out and pick a fun colour for spring and summer. I think they’re worth it. I’d prefer brighter colours (like my “Lollipop”) – they have more pigment and are just… more fun. :)

 “Cupcake”

 “Lollipop”

Ühel hetkel hakkasid kõik Youtube’i tüdrukud Revlon Lip Butter huulepalsamitest rääkima. Nendest sai uus hitt ja ligi pooled neiud vajasid neid vähemalt viies eri toonis. Igatahes, teadagi – Eestis Revlonit ei müüda ja meie tüdrukute ainus lootus neile käpp peale panna on välismaalt tellides, välismaal elavatel sõpradel saata paludes või… reisides. :) Ma käisin hiljuti Londonis ja astusin sisse Superdrug’i, kus need kenasti rivis olid. Valisin välja kolm, millest ühe (“Strawberry Shortcake”) kinkisin õele. Mulle jäid hele beebiroosa “Cupcake” ja pisut erksam ja suvisem “Lollipop”.

Nagu ikka, meeldib mulle alustada pakendist ja pakend on neil toodetel imeilus. Minu meelest näeb see välja palju kallim ja luksuslikum kui on tegelik toote hind (üks palsam maksis umbes 7 naela). Tekstuur on väga mõnus ja pehme, pigment näib sõltuvat toonist, mille endale valid. Näiteks “Lollipop” on väga tugeva pigmendiga, samas kui “Cupcake” on veidi tagasihoidlikum. Kuna “Cupcake” on nii õrn ja roosa, tuleb sellega ettevaatlik olla – nii nagu nude-toonides huulepulgad ikka, tahab ka see enda alla ideaalselt pehmeid ja terveid huuli.

Kui kellelgi on võimalik neile toodetele ligi pääseda, siis soovitaksin kindlasti endale kevadsuveks ühe soetada. Eelistaksin aga siiski pisut erksamaid ja lõbusamaid värve nagu on “Lollipop”. Siis saad sa tõepoolest huulepalsami pehmuse, huulepulga pigmendi ja huuleläike läike. ;)
